Default PF SPEED - on 56k this time

I know not may people are still on 56k but im up in scotland this weekend (land of no BB it seems , still on crank up electric where i am )

just decided to check my emails and then logged onto PF....


it took at least 10 mins to find the homepage, another 10 mins to log in and then another 10 mins to get to general discussion, and the smilies still haven't loaded after 20 mins..


i know 56k modems are now prehistoric but every other webpage has loaded quite quickly considering im using morse code internet!


on 2 meg broadband its still really slow at home lateley.





i really think this needs addressing as i have noticed a lot of other complaints recentley......


(not a knock at anything else PF, just the speed)

Could have took my pacenotes up for Mull and given them the once over for me

Thought about filling the jerry cans with Optimax, but I know what you mean about Tennants so they are going full of Stella instead

Have fun masterchef

I've been having speed problems with PF for ages but whenever someone posts about the problem the post just disappears into the depths of 'General Discussion' without any response from the websteam
